sabel's pochero is the way to go w/ pedor (ft25)

it has been a couple of months since i've been trying to locate sabel's pocherohan in the map of cebu. geez, i am that bad with directions. but thankfully and luckily, just this month, pedor and i finally got the chance to visit the place. i believe it was the weather that pushed us to locate the place. when it's always raining like today, a bowl of pochero will not only warm your tummy but also your heart. aw!

not only will they offer you a heart warming meal but they will also make you feel special. imagine this: when we went there around 12 noon for lunch, we got serenaded  by a live band like it's valentines day. and yes, it is still july.  the live band who played classic songs was definitely a bonus.

aside from sabel's pochero, another must-try is their crabmeat

and another despedida w/ jogens baby and co. (ft23)

'twas jogen's time to go. between a stressful work and being a mother, she decided to become a full time mom instead for baby jayden. right choice at the right time. we celebrated jogen's send off party at Captain A's Seafood Grill: home of the boodle fight experience. aside from her despedida, the super cutie baby jayden was also introduce to us.

Boodle fight is a military style of eating where long tables are prepared and food are on top of the banana leaves. Viands and rice ready to eat using your bare hands, jugs of water are prepared on the side to wash hands before the "eating combat". With the signal to start the boodle fight, everyone aims for his/her position. ~from urban dictionary

manileng's despedida w/ team gavin (ft22)

what other great way to remember and enjoy shared memories before parting ways than to have it with  a scrumptious meal.  manileng, a co-worker/teamate/friend was leaving us/the company that day. but no, surely that wasn't goodbye. it was more like a "see you around" send off party.

we had it at Co Jordan Pond and Seafood restaurant. where, not only we got to enjoy succulent food but we also got to test our patience through fishing. well, that day was also the day i discovered that fishing is really not for me. eating, maybe. 

 who can say no to these shrimps in garlic sauce?

 Co Jordan's fresh talaba

Co Jordan's mouthwatering crabs in spicy chilli sauce

 Co Jordan's sweet and sour pork

 Co Jordan's grilled squid

 Co Jordan's lechon kawali

 Bebong's Mango Cake

 look ma! barehands.

lunch at an island w/ pedor (ft20)

an escape from the stressful life of the city, pedor and i went back to camotes island last december for a 3-day getaway. i planned out everything on that trip including where to take our lunch on the second day, lol. and so we went to pito's sutukil at santiago bay because pedor wanted to try out pito's sashimi and mainly because i haven't been there though i already visited camotes before. by the way, sutukil stands for sugba (grilled), towa (soup) and kilaw (ceviche). here are some of the foods that went through our tummy that day :)


pito's tuna sashimi


sizzling squid with mushroom


shrimp guisado


santiago bay

these crazy crabs w/ pedor (ft19)

a sucker for sea food. yes, that's me. i dragged pedor one time to try out these succulent crabs from crazy crabs at gaisano country mall in banilad. i found out about this place when i was browsing through the net one boring afternoon. 




i ordered their garlic crab with rice combo

pedor on the other hand tried their coconut milk crab with rice combo


we ordered their sinigang shrimps as well but i was kinda disappointed with it because the shrimps were too small to be cooked for sinigang (this explains why i don't have a picture of it..lol). may be it just didn't meet my expectations or may be i was just not in the mood for it. nevertheless, those crabs did satisfy my seafood craving for that day.

seafood lunch date w/ pedor (ft18)

saturday rest day-lunch date. we're supposed to be having a balbacua feast as i've really missed those suckers but pedor was craving for some baked scallops and i can't say no to this either.


AA BBQ's shrimps in butter and garlic. 


sadly, scallops were not available when we went there.  we had 2 choices, tahong (mussels) and talaba (oysters). obviously, as shown on the pic, we opted for AA BBQ's baked talaba. the cheese mixture on their baked talaba and any other baked dishes are to die for (me, kinda exaggerating). for every time that we've dined here, pedor and i will really discuss as to what comprises the cheese mixture. and then there's this challenge to try and replicate it at home which i'm not able to do so, lol. 



satisfied tummy. satisfied heart. aw
